Ex. 4. Read the text. A commercial lawyer A commercial lawyer gives legal advice to businesses of all sizes. The work ranges from general company/commercial work (such as helping new enterprises get established) to large, complex corporate transactions (including mergers and acquisitions), often referred to as corporate law. Commercial lawyers advise on specialist areas of law and represent clients where there is a business-related dispute. Although this career is open to graduates of any discipline, a degree in the following subjects may increase your chances: law, law with a language. Non-law graduates take a conversion course called the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) or Common Professional Examination (CPE), which takes one year if studied full-time. This route is as popular as starting with a law degree. Almost all firms appreciate the breadth offered by candidates who have a degree in another subject. The next step after a law degree or the GDL/CPE is the Legal Practice Course (LPC), which can be completed in one year if taken full-time. Candidates then start a two-year training contract with a law firm. An excellent academic record is important. Postgraduate degrees do not necessarily confer an advantage but, depending on the subject, may indicate to a prospective employer that you have a strong interest in a particular area of law. Most commercial lawyers specialize in particular areas of law such as:
Commercial lawyers usually work in teams on complex and intellectually demanding work, requiring the ability to meet exacting deadlines and work under considerable pressure. Work activities vary according to the type of case and specialist area but typically involve:

Ex.3 Read the text. Magistrates In Britain, the vast majority of judges (that is, people who decide what should be done with people who commit crimes) are unpaid. They are called “Magistrates”, or “Justices of the Peace” or JPs. There are about 30000 magistrates in Britain. They are ordinary people who are selected not because they have any legal training but because they have “sound common sense” and understand their fellow human beings. Magistrates are selected by special committees in every town and district. Nobody, not even the Magistrates themselves, knows who is on a special committee in their area. The committee tries to draw Magistrates from as wide a variety of professions and social classes as possible. Magistrates judge cases in the lower courts. They have no formal legal qualifications, but they are respectable people who are given some training. They give up time voluntarily. Judges A small proportion of judges are not Magistrates. They are called “High Court Judges” and they deal with the most serious crimes, such as those for which the criminal might be sent to prison for more than a year. High Court Judges, unlike Magistrates, are paid salaries by the State and have legal training. There is no special training for judges. They are trained as barristers and preside in more serious cases.
Coroners have medical or legal training (or both), and inquire into violent or unnatural deaths Clerks of the Court Clerks look after administrative and legal matters in the courtroom. Jury A jury consists of twelve people (“jurors”), who are ordinary people chosen at random from the Electoral Register (the list of people who can vote in elections). The jury listen to the evidence given in court in certain criminal cases and decide whether the defendant is guilty or innocent. If the person is found guilty, the punishment is passed by the presiding judge. Juries are rarely used in civil cases. Ex. 4 Put the words in the questions in the correct word order and answer them.
